  1. Boffins warn that #AI #papermills are swamping #science with garbage studies
    The team from University of Surrey notes an "explosion of formulaic research articles," including inappropriate study designs and false discoveries, based on data cribbed from the #US #NHANES nationwide health database.
    The study, published in PLOS Biology, a nonprofit publisher of open-access journals, found that many post-2021 papers used "a superficial and oversimplified approach to analysis."

  5. #AI ready health datasets can be exploited to generate many research articles of limited scientific value. Stefan Stender & @jabyrnesci explore a @PLOSBiology study describing a sudden explosion in papers analyzing the #NHANES dataset. Paper: plos.io/3RWgNog Primer: plos.io/4iTxuvq

  15. Note to self: when building a health survey which is going to be compared to an existing survey*, design your questionnaire to be as similar as possible to the existing one, even if it's not the way you'd do it. This will save you a lot of trouble down the road lining up all the data.

    Oh well. Live and learn.
